still reeling from this lol

Fake Charlemagne · Jan 23, 2013

I love these off the wall crossovers. I only wonder how much liberty they're gonna take with the SMT characters. Do they stick to just the main line stuff, or is every spin-off fair game? Cause Demifiend teaming up with Elizabeth would be godtier.

Save 'N Quit · Jan 23, 2013

Well that this is a surprise.

If the game comes out in the US, I might honestly have to go and buy a WiiU

Jarekx · Jan 23, 2013

Nintendo is making all my dreams come true this morning. I'm more excited about the MegaTen part than the Fire Emblem, but man it'll be awesome .

Does this mean SMT characters can now be in Smash Bros?

Just kidding!

But I'm actually serious.

Demifiend in Smash Bros? Could they even call him that considering the wide audience range for Smash Bros?

It was announced on the US stream.

What are the chances this is the start of a greater Atlus-Nintendo partnership? Personally, I find the thought very interesting.

The theoretical reaction/meltdown of a Nintendo exclusive Persona 5 would be comparable to FFXIII going multiplat.

It'd be at least Bayonetta 2 tier of tears. Maybe more.

They only showed main line SMT characters, but no idea until we get more details.

Brobzoid · Jan 23, 2013

A visual novel game, obviously.

or maybe a shmup.

zroid · Jan 23, 2013

by the way, that pan across the timeline of Fire Emblem was pretty awesome

Did you see the Bayonetta 2 reveal thread? Probably like that.

What's up with this gen and crazy crossovers? I can't even imagine how this came about.

What is it going to beeeeeeeeeee? I want more!

I think Chie-Gaf alone outnumbers Bayonetta-Gaf.

Just wait for the new Wii U title to be announced at E3:

Imagine X Dressing

Coxswain · Jan 23, 2013

I wouldn't have guessed that this would ever get made.

I hope it's primarily Atlus doing the mechanics, though. Their SRPGs are pretty hit and miss, but I just flat out don't really like Fire Emblem.

First HD SMT!

But SMT for PS3... Ugh, that hurts.

Aiii · Jan 23, 2013

I'll be honest, when I saw Atlus pop up at Nintendo Direct I immediatly thought, omg, they're anouncing Persona 5 for Wii U.

But this is even better, feed me more Atlus! MORE!

zroid · Jan 23, 2013

terrible gif, but eh

BlackJace · Jan 23, 2013

Holy shit.

That already started a generation ago. DS got Devil Survivor, Devil Survivor 2, Strange Journey, 3ds got Devil Survivor Overclocked, SMT 4, Soul Hackers

GrandHarrier · Jan 23, 2013

Seems like a bad fit. And let's be honest, we'd rather have an actual SMT game.

Thoraxes · Jan 23, 2013

wtf...

I'm excited as hell though!

slightconfuse · Jan 23, 2013

Wait what

This is insane

Codeblue · Jan 23, 2013

Definitely the best part.

You know, now that I look at it, there are no characters there that didn't appear in an official US release (The FE6 group got a cameo in 7 at least).

Shig · Jan 23, 2013

So, just drawing from mainline SMTs for protagonists? As in, the segment of the franchise that has only had one game localized for the west, whose sales have been dwarfed by most of the spinoffs? Seems, uh, a bit limited if they want to hook western audiences on familiarity.

Yet most of the SMT side didnt appear in the us at all hah

Almost brought a tear to my eye.

So much nostalgia

Boss Doggie · Jan 23, 2013

Oh right, SMT also has those weird RNG.

Fuck you Digital Devil Saga

Van Owen · Jan 23, 2013

I'd like a regular FE on Wii U, but thus will do for now.

Despera · Jan 23, 2013

NEW SMT

AH

GOD

WHAT

Don't even know what it is and I AM HYPED TO SHIT.

EDIT: Wait, is this Hashino's surprise collaboration? IS HASHINO WORKING ON THIS?

HOLY FUCK THE POSSIBILITIES AAAAAAAAAAH

I was thinking that as well. This could be the surprise collaboration he talked about.

Who needs Famitsu surprise scoops when you've got Iwata Direct to save the day.

Aostia · Jan 23, 2013

will it be RPG or strategic?

It's kind of the inverse to the SMT side, where only SMT III (and eventually IV) had U.S. releases, but yet SMT I, II, and If... characters are featured.

swirlyglasses · Jan 23, 2013

This is jawesome and will be brilliant.

Alexios · Jan 23, 2013

Shouldn't they just ask Atlus to make a Wii U SMT instead, and they also do a full FE on Wii U? That would be preferable to me, rather than a collaboration that won't be a serious entry in either series. I'm sure it can be awesome in its own right and I'd play it if that happens if I then have a Wii U, but still. Maybe it's setting the stage for separate titles... That would be rad.

I guess we won't know for sure until they release more details.

or a cross turn based strategy game

Hmm maybe this is the time line(from when the lords appears) for fire emblem? Make sense ?

edit: wrong SS sister appears at the start too

oh well

buddha0991 · Jan 23, 2013

Aostia said:

Considering they have been making this series:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53M8PwCgdis

Id say both

Hot Coldman · Jan 23, 2013

What's up with Fire Emblem lately, anyway? Felt like Shadow Dragon forced the series back into Japan for a while there, now we've got a brand new game releasing very soon and a big collab title for a home console. Crazy.

Sadist · Jan 23, 2013

Want this

Moar strategic RPG awesomeness

Fisico · Jan 23, 2013

At first i thought they were announcing Persona 5 for Wii U, I imagined the bomb on gaf and then i saw Fire Emblem and... WAIT, WHAT, WTF ?

Well Tamaki Uchida of SMT If... appears in Persona 1 and 2 if thats any consolation hah

Ha, Strange Journey officially demoted! Also funny to see Chiaki from SMT3 get top billing.

Fire Emblem Awakening being the best selling game in years for the franchise is what happened

vareon · Jan 23, 2013

And suddenly my Fire Emblem Musou joke prediction was one-upped by Nintendo, IntSys, and Atlus.
